E4.8 Exit Signs

View Ecoglo’s complete range of BCA E4.8 compliant photoluminescent exit signs. Ecoglo’s Emergency Exit Signs are manufactured and tested to comply with E4.8 Design and Operation of Exit Signs and EP4.2 Performance Solutions.

Ecoglo’s high visibility and durability ensure that the signs can be installed in any environment, indoors or outdoors. As long as there is sufficient natural or artificial light to charge the signs then a Performance Solution can be engineered to meet NCC performance specifications.

Ecoglo manufactures two grades of photoluminescent sign material with different levels of brightness to meet different performance specifications. All reference to Ecoglo signs on this website means Ecoglo S20 grade photoluminescent signs. S20 grade signs meet both Deemed to Satisfy (DtS) Provisions of NCC Specification E4.8 and can be used in Performance Solutions to meet NCC EP4.2.

BR2 Architectural Series

Architectural Exit Signs – BR2-S20
Cost-effective, sustainable and fail-safe, Ecoglo BR2-S20 exit signs offer all the features of the standard exit signs but are finished in a sleek, aesthetically pleasing design to complement any interior space.

Red List Free Exit Signs – BR2-LBC
Ecoglo BR2-LBC exit signs are the same in appearance as BR2-S20 signs and offer all the same benefits. The BR2-LBC signs, however, differ in that they have no ‘Red List’ ingredients and so are Living Building Challenge (LBC) compliant.
Ecoglo BR2-LBC exit signs are currently the only exit signs on the Declare website – see link below:
